INTRODUCTION (
The fertile and productive agricultural lands in the Piedmont section
of North Carolina led to the early settlement of Charlotte, incorporated
in 1766. The city and its surrounding areas played significant historical
roles during the period of opposition to British colonial rule and in the
struggle for independence. In 1780 Charlotte was invaded by Cornwallis,
whose epithet , " ....... this place is 3 damned hornet ' S nest , " is perpetuated
in the city's seal and in the names of local organizations.
Following the abolition of slavery and the introduction of wares
into the agricultural economy, farming as an occupation gave way to manu—
facturing in Charlotte as well as in other cities of the Piedmont. With
the development of enormous quantities of hydro-electric power in the
vicinity, and because of the city’s strategic location at the geographic
center of the two Carolinas, Charlotte, now the largest city in North Caro-
lina, has become a key distributing point for both states. The manufacture
of textile products, including cotton yarns, and fabrics, knit goods,
hosiery, etc., is the principal occupation of the city, although other
industrial activity exists. The city is headquarters for the luke Power
Company's system in the Carolinas, and for numerous wholesalers and jobbers
of a variety of commodities.
The tremendous increase in population which the city has experienced
in its precipitous growth as a commercial and industrial center, is apparent
from the following figures:

The social significance to the community of adequate housing hardly ‘
needs re-emphasis here, nor are many individuals ignorant of the existence
of housing inadequacy in the nation’s cities. It has long been recognized,
however, by those who are concerned with the housing problem and are inter- (
ested in its solution, that basic data must first be made available in
detail about actual conditions among residential structures, and about the
population, income, rents, and facilities in affected areas. Such infor~
mation can best be obtained by making a survey of real property. The lack
of funds for research of the nature and scope of a real property survey has
been a great factor in retarding the attack on the housing problem. The
availability of relief workers of thc white collar class who could serve
as enumerators and tabulators of the desired data has provided a unique ‘

opportunity to obtain this vital information, while furnishing these workers
an occupation suitable to their standards and training.
Because of the growing demand for these factual dats on the part of
awakening civic groups, and the recognition of the need for improved
housing, the North Carolina State Planning Board, in 1958, submitted for
approval to the Work Projects Administration a project proposing to make
a complete study of land use, real property, and low-income families in
several North Carolina cities and towns, of which Charlotte was one.
Following the standard procedure for real property inventories, enti-
tled Technique for a Real Property Survey, the city was enumerated by
blocks. A sheet was prepared for each block on which the ares measurements
and descriptions of the use of every plot of land and every structure were
listed. This information furnished on the block lists, when mapped, con-
stitutes the land use survey, and should be of value to the community in
formulating zoning policies, as well as in the location of future enter-
prise and construction.
Every dwelling unit on each block was canvasscd end a reel property
schedule was filled in for each covering the detailed data which, later
tabulated by blocks and then for the city as e whole, served as the basis
for the analysis attempted in this report. This constitutes the dwelling
survey. The tabulation of the information on the reel property schedules
was assembled in 98 tables. In addition to thc information thus made
available for every block in the city, as well as tor the city as s whole,
s series of maps was prepared in connection with the dwelling survey, which
graphically presents each of the significant housing factors surveyed.
The real property schedules were checked as soon as they were
enumerated and examined for factors which would determine the adequacy or
inadequacy of a dwelling. Those dwellings designated es inadequate or
substandard by this check were re—enumerattd for data on the families they
housed. Following a separate technique, entitled the Low Income Housing ‘
Ares Survey, the data furnished by this second enumeration were treated
as a separate survey. The low—income family schedules, after their ,
enumeration had been checked, were coded and transcribed to data cards from Z
which 147 tables were derived.
The Real Property Survey set up an office in Charlotte in February 1939
for the duration of the land use survey and the enumeration of the dwelling A
and low—income family schedules, as well as the preliminary checking of
these activities, in which some 75 white and Negro persons, taken from the
local certified rolls of the Work Projects Administration, were engaged. (
The city of Charlotte provided the office space, equipment, supplies, forms,
end other necessary materials. By August this phase of the work had been
completed and the schedules were sent to Raleigh, state headquarters of the
survey, for coding, tabulation, mapping, and analysis. i
The tabulations, prepared in separate volumes, are designed to present,
in as lucid a manner as possible, the exact results of the enumeration, An
attempt has been made here to present and analyze this statistical informa- X
tion in brief narrative form.

The interest in the housing situation led to the creation of a local
Hguging Authority in ChFiI‘lO‘0t€ ifi M£&I‘Ch l959. On the basis of preliminary
survey figures, the United States Housing Authority appropriated $2,0l4,000
toward the construction of 568 low·eost dwelling units for white families
and 452 for Negroes with low incomes. The rentals and income limits of
eligibility to residence in these units were established by analyzing the
results of the low—income family survey. It is-hoped that the results of
this survey will continue to assist in the future planning and development
of Charlotte, as well as in any extension of the plans for ameliorating
those social ills commonly acknowledged as the eoncomitants of a housing
problem.
The materials and results of the project will be distributed as
follows:
Basie real property schedules, copies of block tabulcticns, general
tabulations, and correlation tables derived from the general tabulations
will be turned over to the city manager. Basic schedules for low-income
family data and copies of the tabulations derived from these schedules will
be filed with the Housing Authority of the City of Charlotte. Presentation
maps and land use maps will be given the city for the use of the city
engineer. Copies of the finil report will be filed with interested public
departments and institutions.
